I seriously looked into getting the new Edelbrock when it came out cause my M1/2BBL wasnt going to cut it for my new setup. Talked to a few that have the F1 Hughes modified version and their reactions were mixed. One loved it(near stock) 3 others were so so about it(semi to heavily modified). I had heard what the cost of the Eddy/Hughes was going to be and getting it across the border(to Cda) was looking at 40-80% more. Last Summit order was $888, to my door cost $1425! I would of got that intake ported, matched, decked & hi heat coated up here.(add 600+).
That would of been WAY too much for me to justify so yesterday I got an M1/4BBL instead from a good buddy. It had everything I planned on already done to it by same shop that did my block/heads(hes gone R3 block/454ci). Traded it for SMT6 (laptop tuning) and a new MSD BTM that I had so it cost me nothing out of pocket (850/3yrs ago).
As far as running carb goes. alternate to the Eddy/Hughes is the M1/4BBL which you can get cheaper. (find them used on the different forums) It has the same adapter plate arrangement.
